Is this correct: An absolute vaccum doesn't exist because there exist fields (gravitational and electro-magnetic) everywhere and always ?

Define absolute vacuum. If you define it as a nothingness, then your statement is always correct in that it doesn't exist, because there are indeed fields related to the fundamental forces and a nonzero energy permeating the quantum vacuum.

A vacuum is just supposed to be a volume without matter, which is technically possible.

So, if photons exist in a space, it is also called vacuum?

Photons aren’t matter so yes.

Thanks for the answers so far. Would it theoretically be possible to create a space (e.g. some box) without any matter and no field inside?
